Topic: 1986 SAS toyota turbo!!! first thread

[86sasturbo]

well truck did good in the snow, i had to air down to 8 psi and it was like a snow mobile. i was going everywhere. had alot of fun. But broke my rear shocks off again, blew a rear brake line, and my turbo start seizing up again on the way home. i drove it home and made it 150 miles home. but the motor is done. im swapping a 22re in next week. 
here are some pics we went to Uncle toms cabin right out of georgetown. we got to within about 2 miles of the rubicon. we camped in the snow. pretty damn cold

i was getting so mad  because i was getting stuck all the time even with lockers, all about tires psi i went down to 8 psi and had the best time!

[Nimyad]

Like your truck, looks good. You should come over here and snow wheel when you can't do  at 8 psi. Last weekend i was at 2 and still having a hard time.

[86sasturbo [OP]]

i did the swap because i had 1 to many  and side flopped on jungle trail at hollister and thought i could drive out of it  big mistake i tweaked the cab super bad, the doors would hardly open and close anymore so time to swap cabs along with the new bed i got. im taking suggestions on colors also for the paint job

[chim]

$100 is a sweet deal!

[86yoter]

just don't go to flashy, i like the flat colors. you painting it yourself?

[86sasturbo [OP]]

haha im thinking about lime green, with a black hood like the macho taco\

[86yoter]

rock it bud.

[86sasturbo [OP]]

well i went out this weekend, raged wayyyyy top hard. got some alcohol poisoning, its raining and ive had zero motivation to work on this thing. the motor is out also. i guess im doing allright.  but hopefully this rain lets up so i can re weld my shock hoops, and sliders since they bent up and hit the doors, also GUSSET EVERYTHING

[86sasturbo [OP]]

well i finally stopped chasing women and drinking at bars and got this new cab on! just waiting on harness and motor  today was a good day, ill get it gutted and swap my steering and everything on tommorrow. im going to gut under the hood and paint it. I also flap disked the whole frame and painted everything flat black. so i guess this is a frame off resto? doing this on a 22 year old assclown budget also

[k5kickin]

wheres that light rack, and you have a freaking sweet truck. Paint is lookin good too I like toyotas in lime green.

[86yoter]

nice work bud. i saw that you only cut about 6" or less out of your doors y not lower? Just wondering i am about to build mine just getting input.

[86sasturbo [OP]]

22 hilux made them on this board and just gave them to me. i plan on fully redoing them. but they are cool to cruise around with.  as far as the light rack goes it will go back on. im messing around with converting it to HID lights. so it will be daylight at night. i still have some little odds and ends to button up. like the interior cage, gettting a front bumper and cab exo made.

[86sasturbo [OP]]

all body panels lined up! new fenders, rear shocks mounted and i give you a dent free 2nd gen toyota! pretty proud of it to see how far it came along time to sit back and enjoy a    ive been super busy with my new job so havent got much done on it lately a grand total of 50 miles on the new motor. it needs paint im thinking dark green but im not sure yet any input is greatly appreciated im gonna sit back and enjoy a few  im pretty damn proud of this thing
